I always enjoy talking to Marc Miller for insights and stories about finding meaningful work in the second half of life. Now you can read his thoughts on the topic drawn from years of consulting with clients, as well as his own experiences. The information in each chapter is practical, with helpful action steps. But, as he reminds us, learning new skills and meeting new people should also be fun. Experienced workers still have enormous contributions to make to our society and economy.

Marc’s insights into our late-career challenges are profound. For anyone navigating this new and uncertain life stage, his book provides a reassuring and empowering message.
John Tarnoff, career coach and author, “Boomer Reinvention”
“I love this book. Marc points out that as we get older it becomes harder to “pretend” to be something other than ourselves at work. Amen. The chapter about being a square peg in a round hole will resonate with many readers. Marc shows us how to live in our own unique “square hole” when we repurpose our career. I live by the mantra “make age 50 to 75 the best years of my life” – and “you can’t do that if your career ladder is against the wrong wall”
Thom Singer, Speaker and host of the “Cool Things Entrepreneurs Do” podcast
As usual, Marc Miller provides excellent advice on today’s requirements for a successful job search and career, focused on helping those of us over 50 cope with all the changes happening. Marc describes how the whole work environment has shifted dramatically with the increasingly rapid growth in the use of technology – for example, how some older industries (and jobs) are disappearing while new industries (and jobs) are developing. In this latest edition, Marc describes how to recognize, adapt, and overcome the new barriers to continuing your career and your income.
